SHOCK is the final feature film directed by legendary horror maestro 'Mario Bava' (BLACK SUNDAY, TWITCH OF THE DEATH NERVE). 'Daria Nicolodi' (DEEP RED, PHENOMENA) and 'John Steiner' (TENEBRE) star in this Euro Horror favorite, now restored from the original negative materials for the first time ever.
